A new resource at Peterson Space Force Base is helping provide for military families in the Pikes Peak region. The Peak Pantry, a food bank service, is now available to support active-duty service members and their families.
“The pantry is donation-based and relies on community support,” said Amanda Walz, Peterson Schriever and Cheyenne Mountain Spouses’ Club president. “The pantry aims to fulfill the needs of the community, especially considering the high cost of living in Colorado.”
Open multiple times throughout the week, the pantry provides essential groceries to military members in the Colorado Springs community, regardless of rank or service branch. No referral is needed; service is available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Defenders assigned to the 21st Security Forces Squadron at Peterson Space Force Base earned the U.S. Army Air Assault badge, completing one of the military’s most demanding short-duration training courses and returning with skills that strengthen the squadron’s readiness in contested environments.
